Lithuania Transforms the West

This book analyzes security developments in Lithuania since 1988, a period marked by liberation, the collapse of the USSR, and the integration into NATO.

"Die aktuelle Relevanz des Buches ergibt sich aus der verschlechterten Sicherheitslage in Europa. Wer den russischen Krieg gegen die Ukraine und seine Konsequenzen für das Baltikum besser verstehen möchte, dem sei das vorliegende Werk empfohlen."

Zusammenfassung
"Darius Furmonavicius' book offers an extremely useful and essentially pioneering interpretation of Lithuania's recovery of its national being and the enormous progress this small country has made in just over a decade since the nation regained its freedom". -Anthony Packer (1940-2014), former Honorary Counsellor of Lithuania in Cardiff, UK
